<p><b>mod_python</b> is an <a href="Apache_HTTP_Server" title="Apache HTTP Server">Apache HTTP Server</a> module that integrates the <a href="Python_(programming_language)" title="Python (programming language)">Python programming language</a> with the server. It is intended to provide a Python language binding for the Apache HTTP Server.
</p><p>When mod_python released it was one of the more efficient options for Python scripts compared to <a href="Common_Gateway_Interface" title="Common Gateway Interface">CGI</a> as CGI requests require starting a new Python process to respond to each individual web request.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>
<p>The initial implementation of mod_python was a port to Apache HTTP server of a project called NSAPy. NSAPy was written by Aaron Watters for the <a href="Netscape_Enterprise_Server" class="mw-redirect" title="Netscape Enterprise Server">Netscape Enterprise Server</a> and was used as an example in a chapter of the book <i>Internet Programming with Python</i> written by Aaron Watters, <a href="Guido_van_Rossum" title="Guido van Rossum">Guido van Rossum</a>, and James Ahlstrom.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The first version of mod_python was released by Gregory Trubetskoy in 2000. In September 2002, mod_python was donated to the <a href="Apache_Software_Foundation" class="mw-redirect" title="Apache Software Foundation">Apache Software Foundation</a> and became part of the <a href="Apache_HTTP_Server" title="Apache HTTP Server">Apache HTTP Server</a> project.
</p><p>Since the development of Python's <a href="Web_Server_Gateway_Interface" title="Web Server Gateway Interface">Web Server Gateway Interface</a> from PEP 3333 in December 2003, interest in mod_python has largely moved to WSGI-compliant alternatives such as <a href="Mod_wsgi" title="Mod wsgi">mod_wsgi</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Grisha_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Grisha-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Development on the project eventually ceased due to inactivity of the primary contributors and in The Apache Software Foundation June 16, 2010 Board meeting, the Board unanimously passed a resolution terminating Apache Quetzalcoatl Project (umbrella project for mod_python).<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In September 2013, development of mod_python briefly resumed independent of the Apache Software Foundation<sup id="cite_ref-Grisha_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Grisha-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> however it has been largely inactive since and no new releases were created.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
